Class ACERReturnLevel

All Implemented Interfaces:
Function<Vector,Double>, RealScalarFunction, UnivariateRealFunction

public class ACERReturnLevel extends ReturnLevel
Given an ACER function, compute the return level \(\eta\) for a given return period \(R\). \(\epsilon_k(\eta)\) can be computed as the inverse of this equation: \[ R = \frac{1}{Pr(X > \eta)} = \frac{1}{1 - \exp(-\epsilon_k(\eta) N)} \] and the corresponding return level \(\eta\) can be found by the inverse of the ACER function.

      public ACERReturnLevel(ACERFunction.ACERParameter parameter, double N)
      Create an instance with the (estimated) ACER function parameter and the total number of events.
      Parameters:
      parameter - the parameter for the ACER function
      N - the total number of events per time period
